An awful lot of fantastic coaching has been coming out of Hollywood lately, have you noticed?
Whether it’s Morgan Spurlock’s feature film debut “Supersize Me”…
“Michael Moore’s “Fahrenheit 9/11″ also on the big screen…
Or the immense coaching breakthrough moments in “Queer Eye for the Straight Guy”…
Tears of joy and newfound confidence in “What Not to Wear”…
And ABC’s lifechanging “Extreme Makeover, Home Edition”…
It’s undeniable. Coaching has come, and found it’s place in what I consider to be some of the very best work coming out of Hollywood.
And that’s not even mentioning the more obvious “Starting Over” and other reality TV shows that revolve around the idea of changing lives for the better through Life Coaching.
Pretty darned cool stuff especially when you consider the limitless reach of television and film in our lives. Will video games with a coaching theme be next? Well if those things have to exist, I can only hope.
Question for you.
Seeing as we’re talking about movies and such.
If you were the last coach on earth, and it was up to you to save the world from its impending doom, who would be the 10 people you would do ANYTHING to coach.
In other words, if your coaching skills were the only thing between survival and certain death and destruction…what 10 people would you choose, out of all the people you know, or maybe who you currently coaching, to coach like a fiend, and save the day?
I know, it’s a pretty funny premise. And no I don’t think any studios will come a-knocking, but I do have a reason for asking.
I strongly believe that coaching has a large role to grow into, to coach those in the public eye, whether that be actors, directors, studio executives, station owners, news programmers, journalists, politicians at all levels of government.
In fact, I’ll call it a responsibility of the coaching profession going forward.
These are the people who through coaching, can be said to have a level of influence that has the potential to spread the effects of coaching to the Nth degree.
Don’t get me wrong, there is nothing small or unworthy about coaching clients who aren’t in the public arena.
But it was Archimedes who said “Give me a lever long enough and I will move the world.”

Women loved stroking and pull my hair, I used to enjoy it. One morning, I was shocked to notice the first revealing signs of hair loss while brushing my teeth: hair was in the sink and the top of my head was noticeably less full than the crown and sides of my head. I’d never before considered what hair loss would be like: Most men in my family do not start losing hair until the age of 50. And yet, as I bent my head to look at the top of my head, I could soon see that hair loss was not just in my future but already occurring.
Once I noticed the thinning strands, I felt my confidence shake. I was very self conscious, I no longer wanted to comb my hair and wore hats as much as possible. My girlfriend and I weren’t as intimate as we were because I was concerned about her discovering the thinning patch on top of my head. My anxiety was through the roof and my performance at work slumped due to the inability to focus.
Thankfully, I found Advanced Hair Studio. One of my friends told me about it in passing. He had been noticeably balding far earlier than I had. However, one day at the gym, I noticed his hair looked full and fresh. He told me that Advanced Hair Studio was to thank.
That very night, I went online and purchased my first product and had them delivered overnight. The results were quick: my hair felt stronger and thicker in just a few days. After a month the thinning patch that caused me to worry myself sick was full of hair. I’d never before thought anti-balding products worked. However, after my experience with Advanced Hair Studio, I now know that there are products out there that can save men a lot of stress, grief, and worrying.

Sometimes I ignore my emotions, ’cause without a date, I get pretty lonely. Get this, this morning I broke my resolution and smoked two packs of cigarettes. During my birthday party while being single, no less. Yeah, I did it. Is that even legal? Well, it’s when I seriously thought about finding a date in North Dallas.
Easy solution. I’ll meet new singles at a matchmaking service like Great Expectations Dallas. That isn’t a bad idea. Why do I bring it up? When I was a little tipsy at Julie’s soccer finals in Dallas this afternoon, Richard wanted to know if I have yet to win a special lady. They sure have nerve. So, I said, “I’m working on it, chill out.”
There’s nowhere to hide when “The Twerp” (my nephew, age 9) doesn’t know when to quit driving home on the topic of marriage. I said to each of them: “I’ll be fine, you would bring that up.”
Guess what? Everyone looked away and giggled. Quite promptly, I fell asleep that night just to get some perspective. But I couldn’t get it out of my head! I can’t imagine what I was thinking there. Billy, who wrote to me from Egypt, offered his opinion that I browse the singles profiles at Great Expectations. I said, “Yeah, maybe I should.” See, everything always works out. I especially enjoy the singles at Great Expectations Dallas.
At the time, singles events and mixers were a novel thing to me. This was all really foreign to me, that my hands started sweating. This slip up did not put an end to the evening. The night was full of crazy-fun mingling. The truth is I’ll never forget all the other members, some who are my new friends.
Afterwards, I realized why so many people show up to these incredibley satisfying Dallas singles nights with Great Expectations, I ran into quite a few winners who certainly feel the same way I do for how dating should be done. Can’t imagine why I used to let anyone give their two cents about me not dating. Wonderfully enough, dating with Great Expectations is my pleasure and like a dream come true.

I suppose that by definition, master mind groups would have to have more than one person. After all, that is the whole group thing. But there is more to it than just having more than one person. The point is that the people in this kind of group have to be working on a common goal. It goes back to the notion that two heads are better than one.
Where would you find one of these groups? It is so much more common than people might realize. Whether they are doing product reviews, giving business recommendations or building rocket ships, these groups thrive because a sort of synergy is formed when like minds work together for a common end.
Often times referred to as “think tanks,” some of the more famous of these groups have giving us things we probably take for granted. A perfect example of this would be the internet. No, Al Gore did not invent the internet. It can really be traced back to a group of people mainly at the University of Illinois. One person probably would not have been able to create the framework for what is now the World Wide Web. But because these people were able to put their heads together, they did come up with a result that was beyond any of them as individuals. And that is the essence of what a master mind group is.
